A Fondren group's donation drive for a local nonprofit agency collected a majority of its goal in just one day, a feat that surprised one of the organizers.

Eddie Outlaw, owner of William Wallace Salon in Fondren, said the donation drive for Stewpot Community Services had a goal of $4,000 over a three-day period. But he didn't imagine that roughly $3,000 would pour in on the first day.
